    Lamb Gyro Wrap
    Janae H.

    The staff is always are so pleasant....i love it here!!!!! Tonight I'm trying a lamb gyro with fries...everything I eat here is always delicious. I've never been disappointed so let's keep the momentum going! No chicken samosas served here but it's OK! I always eat in...because I'm greedy, lol I'm going to continue to support because they can't leave the community They have a rewards program also

    garlic naan

    I recently visited this restaurant for a Yelp event and now I'm back again because the food was that good. I couldn't remember which days they have lamb specials & was hoping I stopped by on the right day, but I didn't. FYI, the lamb specials are on Monday, Thursday, and Friday. Since lamb wasn't an option, I ordered chicken kabob platter with a few substitutions. Instead of white rice I had qabuli pulao; it's rice with carrots & raisins. Those items may seem like an odd couple, but somehow it works & I'm a fan. Instead of salad, I had curry chickpeas. I don't pass up an opportunity to have curry chickpeas, and these were delicious. I could just eat the rice and the chickpeas as a meal itself if I wanted a meatless option. Instead of the regular naan bread, I opted for the garlic naan bread. When I got my order and saw how large it was, I thought this must be a mistake. This piece of bread was easily enough for four people. Slathered on top was this garlic herb butter. You can't go wrong with warm bread and garlic butter. Next time I'm asking for a side of butter so that I can dip the bread in it as well. You can never have too much butter. I washed everything down with a cup complementary chai. I think it's really sweet of them to offer a drink while you wait for your order. I would've gladly paid for that too. I've recently discovered this place, but it's definitely going in the rotation. I can't wait to try some other items on the menu.

    Initially, we were a little skeptical because the place is new but As soon as we walked in ADAM greeted us with a huge smile~! Good sign Tips 1) nice portion sizes 2) the Kabobs are excellent 3) lunch specials daily 4) I suggest you try them before the word gets out I think we found a new spot in this Greenbelt food desert~ish.

    Love Maiwand Kabob! When I saw a fellow yelper check in here, I immediately added it to my list. They're located in the East Gate shopping center in Greenbelt near Sobe and recently opened. I stopped in for a take-out order a few days ago. A nice employee greeted me and took the order. He offered complimentary chai tea! It was pretty empty at the time. There's plenty of seating and parking. I had the chicken kabob with a side salad. The food portions were generous but I didn't enjoy the salad - was bland and it had a weird tasting dressing. Everything else tasted good. I had to get the green sauce of course. I would possibly visit here again but not in a hurry!

    Food here is great and has friendly service. Hope they expand into dc. I got the kofta kabob it was delicious and tender it came with a large piece of bread, salad, and rice. The rice is well seasoned and has dates in that add some sweetness to cut the savoryness. The kabob was well seasoned and tender. It had a great mix of savory and fresh flavors Id definitely be back again. I love afghan food.

    The restaurant was very clean and when I stopped in late on a Saturday evening, there was ample seating for dine in. Since they're located in a shopping center, there's plenty of parking available. The owner was nice, they had paper menus right at the register to assist with choosing what to order. He also made sure to confirm that what I ordered was what I planned, so I appreciated him double checking. I ordered the chicken sheesh kabob entree. I also ordered the spinach appetizer which was a great size for the price. The kabob entree came with aromatic rice, salad, naan, and a cilantro yogurt sauce. Everything was delicious, flavorful, and seasoned well. The entree was a great portion for the price. I'll definitely be back to try other items off the menu. I've heard a lot of positive things about this local chain, so I'm happy they decided to plant roots in this area too.

    Now I've seen this place multiple times when going to Columbia, Hanover, and other spots closer to Baltimore. This past Sunday I just happened to be in that particular shopping center because I was in the Giant looking for the exclusive Oreos. And from a distance it's a blur, but I was like that name looks familiar! When I got closer, I realized I was right, and I was like "ooooh!" I went on inside and there was only one other party in there. I had eaten not long ago so I wasn't really hungry, but I wanted to try something. I was going to go for some appetizers, but the specific ones I wanted weren't available -- they've barely been open a week. I ended up deciding on the veggie platter and it was really... really good. I will say that the potatoes weren't quite as flavorful as they looked, but otherwise I enjoyed every element of that meal immensely. I have to return and try some proper kabobs and I cannot wait! The interior of the restaurant has plenty of seating, so ordering to-go isn't necessary.

    beef and chicken kabob

    MAIWAND KABOB Excellent as usual. I hadn't been there in a few weeks and as soon as I said my name to call in an order I was greeted with "how are you Donna, good to hear from you When I entered to pick up the order one of the staff said " hi Donna, your order is right here " Pretty impressive for a place that stays busy. Thank you guys, great food, excellent service. See you soon, Donna

    I finally got a chance to stop by to pick up dinner after coming a few months ago for a Yelp event. I placed my order online and it was ready a few minutes after I arrived which meant it was hot and fresh!!!! I ordered the lamb combo with rice spinach and curry potatoes and a side of beef. It was still hot when I got home to sit and eat.

    I first visited Maiwand Kabob for a Yelp event, and had to come back for dinner. The hummus and bread was SO GOOD! I was expecting a little pita, but the pitas they gave were huge! My meal was the chicken kabob, which was delicious and well seasoned. I also had a good customer service experience when I called to place the order and arrived to pick it up. Parking was easy as it's in a large plaza.

    Write up lamb and wilted salad. People have the nerve to sell anything nowadays.

    I used to work near Miawand Kebab in Elkridge, and the food there was always exceptional. Unfortunately, this location on Greenbelt Road was a completely different experience. I accidentally ordered a gyro platter instead of the gyro wrap--not a big deal, or so I thought. The meat was chopped into tiny pieces and completely dried out, which to me suggests it wasn't fresh. The rice was just okay, with a strong cinnamon flavor. The side salad wasn't very good either. I just moved to the neighborhood, but based on this visit, I won't be returning.

    We had a delightfully spicy dinner delivered by Al-Madina and then visited to try their simple $20…read morep/p buffet. They also have a full menu including kabobs, biryani, chicken, shrimp, goat and bean entrees. Al-Madina serves huge naan, it's true. I've only had the plain naan basket. I would like to try the garlic and kabuli naan with sesame seeds. Love the Yogurt Salad here. It's a gigantic bowl of yogurt, cucumbers, onion, tomato, mint, cilantro, and lemon. It's bountiful and delicious. We tried the samosas with potato, coriander, mint, cumin seed and red chili's. Very good. We enjoyed the Butter Chicken but it was not like any butter chicken I've had before. There was very little butter and cream present. The sauce was red and spicy. I ordered it as a mild version for the person eating with us. Maybe one could request extra cream if they are looking for a traditional, Amercan-ized, Indian Butter Chicken dish? It was flavorful, for me, though. We also enjoyed the Chicken Tandoori. It is moist, very well-seasoned and delicious. Zero complaints! We really liked the Chana Masala which is great for vegetarians. This is a chickpea dish with spices, and you can tell they have been marinated for a very long time. We tried this on the buffet. The Kabuli Palaw is a very mild and lovely rice dish. It comez with bone-in beef (so if you are serving children or seniors, pull this meat out for them), basmati rice, raisins and carrots. The raisins make it sweet and great. The Chicken Biryani is good and spicy but I enjoyed that it wasn't a fire-spice level. We ate this at the buffet so it was on the medium-spicy side vs. other wildly, spicy biryani's. The Kheer is super-delicious! It's a rice pudding with milk, heavy cream, almonds and pistachios. We also had this in the buffet and loved it. Especially the cardamom notes. The Chai is served very quickly here, so I'm wondering if they have a large soup pot of it in the back. It's nice but add sugar if you like it sweet. I liked that I didn't have to wait forever for it. The spices are just right and I ordered a second one! The service here was very friendly. Most of the staff spoke to us when I requested things and it is like an all-hands-on-board approach. This is why they describe themselves as fast-casual: you can just go to the front and ask for what you need when you are eating at the buffet. Things on this menu which pique my interest: White Lassi (dogh). I looked it up and it's plain yogurt and sugar with aromatics such as cardamom or rose water. They have the following fresh fruit juices: banana, mango, apple, orange, lemon, and watermelon. You can also mix two fruits. I wonder if you can add yogurt because I've and never had banana juice. The Afghani Sheryakh with milk, cream, sugar, cardamom, crushed almonds, saffron, and pistachio also looks delicious. The lentil soup looks delicious, as well as the lentil entrees. When they say it's fast-casual Indian and Pakistani, this is helpful because I've seen words, "Afghan," in titles and Kabuli in a dish name mentioned on the menu so it's a bit confusing. But a woman I was speaking with said the cooks are Indian and Pakistani. Madina is the name of 'the' holy city in Dubai. Maybe it's a similar concept to Jerusalem for us Christians. So there is this whole menangerie of countries mentioned in the menu, basically. The cooking here is the least closest to American Indian that I am used to eating. We really liked the flavors here. I saw jalapeños in a few of the buffet dishes and for me, all that was missing was beer to tamp the spice! Ah well, Coke and Pepsi did the trick for now. Would come back to Al Madina again. It's probably the closest I'll get to the real city of Madina in Dubai.

Bathrooms were uncomfortable-and in the hotel. Parking was a mess with snow and ice unshovelled. Inside the chairs were hard but covered with white linen like a wedding setting. Next to me a man put out his prayer rug and prayed. The food was uninspiring. Spicy. Watery. The fried potato pockets were good without any sauce to dip into. Different accoutrements on each table. Some had napkins. Others had salt and pepper stuff. Some people came in for to go boxes. Altogether interesting and good to know it's here.

It's certainly a good gimmick serving all square pizzas: but don't expect pliable NY-slice consistency. Super thin and crispy, it's more like 2/3 of a cracker with a bit of pizza dough mixed in. The coastal seafood tasted better than it looks - despite how haphazard it seems, everything actually stuck to the slice. But as other reviews noted, the more extravagant pizzas usually limit the fancier toppings to literally one per slice, and that was true here as well. Meanwhile something like the Hawaiian didn't have nearly as much precision. We also ordered mozzarella sticks as a joke. Typical frozen fare, they were alright but we still don't understand why it comes with a biscuit. Literally never seen that ever. I mean if you're here and want pizza, I say go for it. Was hoping the crab pizza would be godlike and become a new favorite, but with how precise they are with dolloping it out, maybe that won't be the pie for me.
